Carol Jacobsen

Carol Jacobsen is a Professor of Art at the University of Michigan, a documentary filmmaker, and the Director of the Michigan Women's Justice and Clemency Project. Her work centers on women who have been incarcerated for life for killing their abusive domestic partners. Through her films and her advocacy work with the Justice and Clemency Project, she attempts to raise awareness of the plight of abused women and the fact that they are much more likely to be convicted and are incarcerated for longer periods than are men arrested for similar crimes.
